Thanks Marcus, I’ve been scouring the Rubiks cube that is the knowledge base 
for about a week now. I’ve also watched the Dan Baker GRCON2019 talk and 
followed the references there as well.

The reference you linked is very helpful in a lot of cases, but in this one it 
doesnt address (anywhere I’ve seen) that in order to have the device operate 
with local oscillator sharing between RF 0 and RF 1, physically connecting the 
radio back to itself needs to be done. I’ve seen plenty of things about 
“external LO” but to me that term is a little confusing because it sounds like 
it’s external LO to the device. 

I guess I was just thinking it might be a good idea to let N321 users know that 
in order to achieve phase coherence between INTERNAL channels, it’s going to be 
more work than a B210. 

Just my 2 cents.
